The school has just had a four-year, $100-million seismic refit and expansion that includes several energy-efficient features, but solar panels were not among them

A writing assignment in Georgina Hope’s Grade 11 composition class at Victoria High School has turned into a quest to get solar panels at the newly refurbished Fernwood school.

Student Eli Thuot said after they wrote the letters, the students visited the legislature to hand-deliver them before meeting with Environment Minister George Heyman and Victoria-Beacon Hill MLA Grace Lore.Heyman has since sent a letter of response, thanking students for their “well-taken” points and dedication to sustainable energy.

As for Vic High, “I think it was something that they talked about but decided against, ­probably for financial reasons,” said Cadence, who noted the school board has indicated there are no funds available right now for solar panels.
